The emperor just doesn't treat everyone equally, and it's none of my business!

The midwife held the child in her arms and looked at him. The smile on her face deepened. She said, "Congratulations, young lady. It's another prince."

Why isn't she a daughter? Gu Shijin thought before fainting.

In the early stages of her pregnancy, Gu Shijin liked to eat spicy and sour food at one moment and she thought she would have a daughter no matter what, but ended up having two sons.

Sour boy, spicy girl is indeed not accurate.

"How is Jin Xiuyi?"

As soon as Lu Junze heard the sound of a baby being born outside, he came in.

Song Jibai: "Your Majesty, Jin Xiuyi fainted due to exhaustion. She will be fine once she wakes up."

Lu Junze sat next to Gu Shijin, combed her hair, and regardless of the sweat all over Gu Shijin, he lowered his head and kissed her forehead, and whispered, "Thank you for your hard work, Jin'er."

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! The young lady has given birth to two princes." The midwife stepped forward to congratulate.

Lu Junze was in a very good mood. He glanced at the two princes, who looked very healthy. He waved his hand and said, "The Chenhua Palace will reward you with a year's salary."

Everyone in the room knelt down happily to express their gratitude. Normally the reward was three months to six months, but this time it was a full year's salary.

"Carry him out to show the Queen Mother." Lu Junze said, his eyes never leaving Gu Shijin.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The Queen Mother was so happy to see the child that she couldn't stop smiling. She quickly held the child in her arms and looked at him carefully. She touched his white and smooth skin, her eyes full of love: "Look at his eyebrows and eyes, how similar he is to the emperor."

The queen standing next to her pulled the corner of her mouth, put on a very forced smile, and said, "Mother is right."

Gu Shijin gave birth smoothly, and the emperor and the queen mother were happy, but the other concubines were not happy. Many people guessed that Gu Shijin was pregnant with twins, but it was another story when they actually saw that they were two boys. This time, she really gained a foothold in the harem.

It can be said that as long as Gu Shijin does not commit suicide, she will have a lifetime of wealth and glory.

Moreover, the two princes born to Gu Shijin looked very healthy, in stark contrast to the sickly appearance of the eldest and second princes.

After holding the child for a while, the Queen Mother handed the child to the nurse and said, "Take the child away and feed him."

Gu Shijin had just given birth at the beginning of the Xu hour, and perhaps because she was too exhausted, she did not wake up until the next morning.

“Hmm…” Gu Shijin opened his eyes and saw Lu Junze’s happy and worried face.

"Jin'er, are you awake?" Lu Junze asked excitedly.

"Your Majesty." Gu Shijin's voice was a little hoarse because he had been shouting at the top of his lungs all day yesterday.

Lu Junze shook Gu Shijin's hand and said, "I'm here."

Since Gu Shijin gave birth, except for the half an hour he was away for court in the morning, Lu Junze had been guarding Gu Shijin in Chenhua Palace all the time.

Gu Shijin didn’t know all this, but when she saw Lu Junze there, she still felt a little happy in her heart. At least Lu Junze should really care about her.

"Your Majesty, where is the child?" Gu Shijin looked around and asked.

"The children are with the wet nurse. I have asked someone to bring them over." Lu Junze said softly. Gu Shijin had gone to great lengths to give birth to these two children, and Lu Junze guessed that she would want to see the children as soon as she woke up.

"Your Majesty, Jin Xiuyi." Two wet nurses quickly came over carrying the two little princes.

The little prince had just finished feeding and fell asleep, but as soon as he entered the room, the two little guys woke up immediately, as if they had sensed something.

A night has passed and the baby is no longer wrinkled like when he was just born. The baby looks much more beautiful now.

Gu Shijin teased him with his hands and said, "Your Majesty, which one is the third prince?"

The two princes looked almost identical and it was difficult to tell them apart.

"This one." Lu Junze pointed at the one in Gu Shijin's arms, "The one with a small mole at the corner of his eye is the third prince."

Gu Shijin took a careful look and found that it was true. The Fourth Prince had no mole on his face, it was clean.

Gu Shijin kissed the Third Prince on the face and said, "You two little darlings are really sensible. You know how to let your mother tell you apart."

The third prince seemed to understand what Gu Shijin said. He stared at Gu Shijin and smiled.

"Your Majesty, he smiled." Gu Shijin said in surprise.

"so cute."

Lu Junze also smiled and said, “It’s up to you.”

Gu Shijin was satisfied when he heard this. Of course he wanted the child he had risked his life to give birth to to be with him.

"Your Majesty, the bird's nest is ready." Xingzhu came in holding a bowl.

The imperial physician said that Gu Shijin could eat something once he woke up.

"Give it to me." Lu Junze handed the fourth child in his arms to the wet nurse, then picked up the bird's nest, scooped a spoonful and handed it to Gu Shijin's mouth.

"Come, try it and see if it suits your taste."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The stewed bird's nest was delicious. Gu Shijin was already hungry, so he quickly finished the whole bowl.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"I want to thank Jin'er for giving me two such healthy sons. Thank you for your hard work, Jin'er." Lu Junze looked at Gu Shijin with tenderness in his eyes.

Gu Shijin blinked and held back the tears when he heard this.

To hear Lu Junze's words, Gu Shijin's suffering was not in vain. In his previous life, many people believed that it was natural for a woman to give birth to a man's child.

Although Gu Shijin had slept all night, giving birth was too exhausting, so she wanted to sleep again after a while. Seeing her tired look, Lu Junze straightened the quilt for her and said, "Go to sleep, the child wants to sleep too, I'll stay with you."

Gu Shijin looked down and saw that, as expected, the Third Prince was lying in his arms with his eyes closed, and could fall asleep at any moment.

"Take the child back."

"Yes, my lord."

The two wet nurses were found by Lu Junze, and Gu Shijin had someone observe them for a few months, but no abnormalities were found, so he felt relieved.

Moreover, Gu Shijin believed that Lu Junze must have sent someone to guard the child.

Gu Shijin's safe birth of two princes caused quite a stir in the harem.

The emperor had few children to begin with, and his only two princes were in poor health. But now the two princes born to Jin Xiuyi are not only healthy, but also look good. It is hard not to be worried.

In the Weiyang Palace, the imperial concubine had suffered a miscarriage yesterday and had not yet recovered from childbirth. She was now lying on the bed with a pale face. Liu Tai was kneeling beside her with a worried look on his face.

"Did Jin Xiuyi really give birth to two princes?" asked the imperial concubine.

She just woke up today and heard this news as soon as she woke up. She was quite shocked.

Her child was miscarried, but Gu Shijin's child was born safely. Although she had miscarried her child, she felt very uncomfortable about Gu Shijin's delivery at this time.

"Don't think about it." Liu Tai grabbed the concubine's hand and comforted her, "I won't let our child die in vain."

"Whether it's Concubine Song or Jin Xiuyi, I won't let them have an easy time. What you need to do now is to have a good rest and take care of your body."

"Everyone says Jin Xiuyi is lucky and blessed." The imperial concubine stared at the roof for a while, then leaned close to Liu Tai's ear and said, "Spread this news..."
